@xiangjiao.jichou: Did you delete the mod? Start Skyrim -> Data Files -> Click Lerkurs Magic Mod -> Delete Selected button.

Great mod, I can't seem to uninstall though. After unsubing I still start with your spells. Suggestions?

Still enjoying your mod. Started a new Character because i love your magic system: Gold is now worth it for the spells. And your spells rock, beeing a mage isn´t dual-stunlocking-single-enemies-to-death anymore. The best mage mod i´m currently aware of (Much better than Phenderix and Midas, your spells are simply fitting in the game and well balanced)

Found a bug on Fire Rune. It places a rune like normal but additionally it deals the same damage to all enemies in (about) a cone.
Really looking forward on this mod, thanks!

Looks amazing. I can't wait to give it a try and actually have worthwhile magic. Thanks for making magic useful again.
